Nature:
Leo is usually a classic individualistic loner who wants to live his own life and is not willing to subject to anyone. He thinks he is special and unique and does not like being assessed the way the common people are. Leo is characterised by noble, generous, proud and self-confident behaviour, but on the other hand he may be big-headed, vain, autocratic, bossy and egocentric.
With this royal and heroic character, he is very demanding either with himself or with the others. Although he need not be as noble and honest as they say, he tries to keep his gloss at least on the outside and he recoils from any ugliness, hypocrisy and fraud. He loves his close ones heartily and warmly but he usually admires and loves himself even more.
The only thing Leo is dependent on is the attention and applause of the others therefore he needs his space to show off. His desire for being put to a pedestal makes him a very ambitious person. His ambitiousness sometimes grows into megalomania. His sovereign manners and contagious joy of life work as kind of light for the others. Leo is the master of gestures of generosity and distinctive expression.
Leo can enjoy luxury – he is built for it. His proudness sometimes grows into boast which makes his rampant ego quite sensitive, therefore it is quite easy to insult him. If he cannot develop his playful intuition he tends to be self-indulgent or even lazy. His charm lies in his self-confidence which he likes to show and in the fact that he lives his life as it was just a game. His life is a series of authoritative initiatives, desires and competition. With superhuman effort he captivates, organizes and creates passionately. This hustler subordinates his desires to a single goal, he dedicates all his sources to that and tirelessly follows it for whole years. He is so confident about his success that he usually attracts it unconsciously. In the worse case, Leo hates criticism and rejects any form of self-criticism at all.
Leo may tend to brag and show off his might and power. For his life role he needs prestige and admiration therefore he likes to take the lead position where he can apply his leadership skills. He is usually full of energy and possesses strong will which enables him to overcome even the hardest obstacles.
